The bar from Goodfellas (1990)
Filming Location in Queens, New York
This is the bar from Martin Scorsese's mob film Goodfellas (1990).
It is called Neir's Tavern, and it is located at 87-48 78th Street in the Woodhaven neighborhood of Queens, New York.
The bar, which opened in 1829, also appeared in the 2011 comedy film Tower Heist.
One of the most iconic moments in Goodfellas unfolds at the bar following the crew's successful heist of approximately $6 million from the Lufthansa cargo building at JFK Airport.
While James "Jimmy" Conway is understandably ecstatic that they pulled off such a robbery, his happiness quickly turns to stress after he learns that some of the crew members have started flaunting their newfound wealth by buying expensive clothes and cars.
To add to his frustrations, a big-mouthed bookmaker named Morris "Morrie" Kessler begins to pester him for his cut from the heist.
The actions of his crew and the police's discovery of one of the robbery trucks turn Jimmy into a paranoid wreck. As a result, he begins "tying up loose ends."
